All The Way From Morocco
Moroccan Chicken Drumsticks

Vicariously traveled to Morocco and learned a recipe.

{ Challenge #12 : Recipe 16/100 }
Moroccan Chicken Drumsticks

Crossing the Atlantic Ocean we head over to north of Africa to an exotic country, The Kingdom of Morocco. Morocco is known for (but not limited to) its music, history, beautiful scenery, Casablanca, and most importantly... food.

I usually come up with my next recipe adventure while working out. For some reason Morocco came to mind so I did a search for a five star recipe and came up with the Moroccan Chicken Drumsticks. First of all, I just want to say that this recipe is phenomenal. It's nothing I've ever tasted in my whole entire life and the chicken is absolutely juicy. The sauce is... mouth watering. Once again the husband came home to a home cooked dinner and was indeed pleased by giving my cooking five stars. And might I add, it was superb!! This recipe is one of the best I've ever cooked in a while.
